This is all by way of trying to describe the kind of daring that at times is absolutely required when playing tournament poker. It's kind of like leaping from stone to stone across the Grand Canyon, when these stones are magically suspended in mid-air and don't even appear until after you've already started to jump towards where you hope the next one will be.
This is an excerpt from my July 29, 2017 post. In my luckiest hand of yesterday's session, I took a leap of faith with a pair of jacks, only to discover that I was up against an opponent who had a pair of aces. I saw the bottom of the Grand Canyon far beneath me, and was in freefall on the flop and the turn, but was miraculously saved by a stone materializing under my left foot - a jack on the river :-)
